    Ep. 85 Sometimes We Need the Reminders We Give

    What happens when the person teaching others about boundaries and burnout realizes they are pushing too hard themselves? In this honest and deeply personal episode of Christ in Private Practice, Camille McDaniel shares a real-time reflection on exhaustion, striving, stewardship, and the difficulty many high-capacity people have with slowing down. After preparing to speak at Richmont Graduate University, launching the new continuing education library for Christ in Private Practice, managing business responsibilities, and balancing family life, Camille found herself trying to “push through” and produce one more thing, until the interruption beside her became the message itself. This episode explores:• The difference between stewardship and striving• Why high-capacity professionals often normalize exhaustion• Hidden signs that burnout may already be happening• The discomfort many people feel when they finally slow down• How interruptions may sometimes be invitations to reconnect with what matters most• A reflection on Proverbs 23:4–5 and the pressure to constantly produce If you are a counselor, business owner, caregiver, ministry leader, parent, or simply someone carrying a lot right now, this conversation will likely feel very familiar. You are allowed to pause.You are allowed to rest.And slowing down is not failure, it may actually be wisdom. 🎧 Listen, reflect, and share this episode with someone who may need the reminder too. ✨ Continuing Education opportunities and additional trainings are available through Christ in Private Practice
